Ur Authy..🌝🌝
Blushes** Oh... you saw that? Okay, okay. My BF is right. With him by my side (and his constant teasing), I think we’re ready to show you what we’ve been working on!
Authy's BF 🌚🌚~
Exactly. Now, enough talk. Let’s give the readers what they came for. Hope you guys enjoy the first chapter! Don't forget to show my baby some love in the comments. 👊🔥
Power Without Warmth~~¹
The room smelled of blood, iron, and expensive cologne.
A man was tied to a metal chair in the middle of the underground hall. His face was swollen, lips split, eyes barely open. Blood dripped onto the marble floor, staining it like ugly art.
William Darcy stood in front of him, sleeves rolled up, knuckles red.
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
You know what I hate the most?
The man coughed, blood spilling from his mouth.
???
Man: “P-please… I already said I didn’t—”
William’s fist slammed into the man’s face again. The chair skidded back loudly.
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
Lies bore me.
He flexed his hand slowly, expression blank.
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(I own cities. I own lives.
One word from me and people disappear.
Yet… every day feels exactly the same.)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
William grabbed the man’s hair and forced his head up**
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
Spreading rumors about my company. Stock manipulation. Fake documents.
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
He leaned in close, voice calm** Did you think I wouldn’t notice?
???
Man: “I was forced—! I swear—!”
The man screamed this time. Blood splattered onto William’s knuckles.
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(They all scream the same way.
Beg the same way.
Fear me the same way.)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(What a boring world.)
William stepped back, breathing steady, not even slightly shaken.
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
I trusted you once.
He punched him again — harder. The man went limp, head hanging.
One of William’s men stepped forward nervously.
Man 1: “Sir… he won’t last much longer.”
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
William stared at the unconscious body**
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(Power. Money. Control.
Luxury cars. A mansion bigger than a palace.
People bowing before me.)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(So why do I feel like a corpse walking?)
William turned away, wiping blood from his hand with a handkerchief.
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
Take him to the hospital.
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
I said hospital.
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
I’m not a murderer—
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
Pause*
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
—Yet.
The men quickly untied the man and dragged him out.
William walked slowly toward the glass wall overlooking the city. Neon lights glowed below like stars he could never touch.
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(Every night, I come here.
Do my work. Destroy enemies.
Sign papers. Give orders.)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(And then I leave.)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(No warmth.)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(No purpose.)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(No joy.)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
He loosened his tie and tilted his head back, staring at the ceiling**
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(God… if you exist…)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(Send me something.
Someone.)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(A gift.)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(Something that can make me feel alive again.)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
His jaw clenched**
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(Because if this is all life has to offer…)
Fitz.William Darcy (ML)
(Then even hell would be more exciting.)
William turned and walked out, his footsteps echoing in the empty hall.
Ur Authy..🌝🌝
And that is the end of Chapter 1! I hope you guys enjoyed the beginning of this journey. Now, I’m just going to leave it right here for today...
Authy's BF 🌚🌚~
Wait, wait, wait. You’re stopping there? Are you serious, babe? That cliffhanger is actually illegal. I can already hear the readers screaming from here.
Ur Authy..🌝🌝
Hey! It’s called suspense! I have to keep them wanting more! 😤
Authy's BF 🌚🌚~
Suspense? More like emotional torture. If you guys want me to steal her laptop and upload the next part early, let me know in the comments. I've got your back! 🤫🔥
Harris (MC)
Don’t you dare! 🥊 Anyway, guys, don't listen to him (but also, please listen to him and VOTE)!
A Flower that doesn't Exist~~²
The bell above the shop door chimed softly.
Harris adjusted the flowers in a glass vase, fingers steady despite the ache in his shoulders. The shop smelled of soil, petals, and tired mornings.
A man in an expensive coat stepped inside, shoes too clean for this side of the street.
???
Wealthy Man: “You’re the florist?”
Harris (MC)
You’re standing in a flower shop, sir.
???
Wealthy Man: “Watch your tone. I want a flower.”
Harris forced a polite smile
???
Wealthy Man: “One that doesn’t exist.”
Harris (MC)
Harris blinked**
Harris (MC)
(-_-)・・・
???
Wealthy Man: “I’m hosting a private event. I want something rare. Unique. Something no one else has.”
He glanced around like the place offended him.
???
Wealthy Man: “If you’re good enough, you’ll find it.”
Harris (MC)
(Here we go again.
Rich people and their god complexes.
Do they think flowers grow because they demand it?)
Harris (MC)
Harris exhaled slowly**
Harris (MC)
Flowers that don’t exist… don’t exist for a reason.
???
Wealthy Man: “Are you saying you can’t do it?”
Harris (MC)
Harris felt his jaw tighten**
Harris (MC)
(Say no and he’ll throw money at my face.
Say yes and he’ll still look down on me.)
Harris turned toward the back, grabbing dried petals, wild herbs, and a single pale bloom hidden behind the counter.
Wealthy Man watched impatiently.
???
Wealthy Man: “I don’t have all day.”
Harris (MC)
Then don’t breathe so loudly.
The man scoffed, but when Harris turned back, he held out a flower unlike anything familiar—soft colors blending unnaturally, fragile yet bold.
???
Wealthy Man: “What… is that?”
Harris (MC)
A flower that doesn’t exist. Now it does.
The man took it slowly, inspecting it like treasure.
???
Wealthy Man: “Hmph. Acceptable.”
He tossed money onto the counter.
???
Wealthy Man: “You’re lucky today.”
Harris (MC)
Harris smiled thinly**
Harris (MC)
And you’re finally satisfied. Congratulations.
The man left without another word.
Harris (MC)
Harris’s smile dropped instantly** Lucky?
Harris (MC)
He slammed his hands on the counter** You rich fu*king idiots think the world bends for you just because you breathe.
Harris (MC)
He kicked a stool** Flowers that don’t exist—why the fu*k don’t you ask for a soul next time!
He dragged a hand through his hair, breathing hard.
Harris froze, checked the screen, then straightened immediately.
???
Landlord (on phone): “Rent was due yesterday.”
Harris (MC)
I know. I know. Please—just one more week. Business has been slow.
???
Landlord: “You said that last month.”
Harris (MC)
I swear I’ll pay. I always do.
???
Landlord: “One week. Not a day more.”
Harris (MC)
Thank you. Thank you so much.”
Harris lowered the phone, shoulders sagging.
Harris (MC)
(I can create miracles from petals…
But can’t buy time.)
Harris (MC)
Shit… it’s late.
He flipped the sign to CLOSED and reached for the door—
Dark coat. Sharp presence. Eyes that didn’t wander—only focused.
Harris hesitated, then sighed, grabbing a simple bloom.
The man didn’t take the flower.
He grabbed Harris’s wrist.
The man looked at him intensely.
Harris (MC)
Ah—ah—what the f—?!
The world seemed to stop.
